598

As Daddy puts it, "Day #598 of your sinus infection..." It seems about that long. One whole week. Ugh. A terrible sore throat at the beginning of the week, that morphed into a sinus infection. I feel like my teeth are going to be shoved out of their sockets. It's like I just put a new invisiliner in, or like I got in a car accident and my teeth got knocked loose (that's from experience). In any case, the entire right side of my face hurts so bad!

So, sadly, no, I have not "kicked" my cold. To my dismay, it has become a fever/sorethroat/sinusinfection/knock-me-off-my-feet for a week type of sickness!
I read Philippians 3, Micah 4 and Joshua 5 today. The authors said that we should 'count all things as rubbish compared to knowing Jesus Christ as Lord...', 'be warned that we will have glorified bodies...', and 'take comfort in knowing that God's ways are higher than ours...'. The first thing I saw when I woke up from my 'morning' nap was Mom's Bible. I knew I had to read the Word--I think I was desperate for it. I really didn't know what to read, then those three chapters, p.3, m.4, j.5, popped into my mind. Hmm, God really does have all things planned out for us.
Oh, the beauty of His ways!



In the course of time it took me to write this post, I have blown my nose (these are not little snauses) 15 times. FIFTEEN. Story of my life. Er, week.
